A1 Grading & Landscapes

I needed hedges removed, clean up around a freshly poured driveway, old mature flower beds pulled and cleaned and new straw put down. Alena and her team did a super job. I highly recommend them for a job well done.

At first it went well and we were pleased with work and the final esthetics of the landscaping. The owner at the time recommended zoysia grass in sod form. I was concerned about this type of grass because our backyard is partially shaded and heavily shaded in spots. A1 assured us that zoysia was the best type of grass for that space and we reluctantly agreed with their recommendation assuming they were the experts. This was in June 2023 and they began work in July 2023. Work finished was tree planting, pine straw installation and prep for the zoysia. This took about a week. The owner came to me stating that he needed $2000 upfront to secure the sod and I paid him in cash for that. Months went by with no sod delivery and the reason given was that the sod distributor in South Georgia couldn't find any quality enough sod to sell us. The sod was finally delivered in October which I felt was very late in the season to be planting a summer grass like zoysia but A1 assured us that it would not be a problem as long as it is kept watered. Now, in June 2025, half of the sod has died off. We have kept it watered, fertilized, and cut to the correct length. We feel it died because it never had a normal hot grass growing period and the root system never took. Plus, we feel that the partial shade may have contributed to its dying off, as well. Pictures of the sod now are attached.

Very professional and satisfied with the results.

very professional

very professional Listen to my concerns and provided options for resolution.

I had a vague idea about planting flowering bushes around my front door. They exceeded expectations !! I am very happy with their work.

Excellent service from Albert and his entire crew! They removed two good-sized trees; removed several dead azaleas, and replaced them with new, lush azaleas. They also trimmed all of the existing shrubs and ground cover, which had not been trimmed in a very long time! I was greatly impressed with how quickly they finished everything including clean up. All of this for a great price! I look forward to having A-1 Grading and Landscapes do more work at my home in the future!

Well-staffed, long-established local area business thatâ s prompt and thorough.

Albert knew what he was doing and the guys work really hard to get the job done

Great Working with this Company! Quality of work was very professional. Came in knocked it out when they said they would and worked around the crazy schedule of my inground pool installation. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone needing Sod installation.

Need to improve on communicating.

Great job and completed the project quickly.

These guys are great. They installed sod for me in an area I had cleared. They were very helpful. They talked me through my options. They gave me some recommendations. We made a decision and scheduled the delivery and installation. They kept me in the loop as far as any delays because of rain. Their work was amazing, quality product, great customer service and the price was unbeatable. Iâ m going to hire them again to redo my flower beds and tree beds. If youâ re looking for high quality work at a great price please, please, please give these guys a call. A1 Grading & Landscaping
